Chapter 101 Is there real friendship between men and women?(2/2)

"It's a love story. You know, whether there is a true friendship between a man and a woman, the kind that does not involve physical attraction to each other. It is an eternal topic." Nora Ephron said.

"Ah...is your story about this proposition?"

"Yes, my protagonists are two men and women. They met each other in college, and then they have the opportunity to bump into each other every few years. They are always in a state of explosive friendship, but unfulfilled love. They are not men.

Love means that the woman has a partner, but after more than ten years of separation and reunion, they still did not get together in the end."

"It sounds like you believe in true friendship between men and women?" Ronald frowned and asked after hearing the general direction of the story.

"Why do you say that? This is your interpretation. In fact, I believe that it is impossible for young men and women to have true friendship. It must be accompanied by physical attraction."

"Then why don't you bring the hero and heroine together?" Ronald asked.

"Life is not like this. The hero and heroine finally get together and live happily together. I am an example... I won't talk about it anymore. I think since the two of them were not together at the beginning, it means that they are not attracted to each other enough.

, but they ended up together in the end, which is obviously unrealistic and will destroy the character creation."

"Heh...", Ronald finished eating the bread, "You didn't sell your script, did you?"

"Indeed, I am talking to a few friends about their newly established production company. How do you know?" Nora Ephron was very surprised.

"Hollywood audiences all like happy endings. They may not have gotten together with the person they love in life, so they come to the cinema to make up for their regrets on the screen."

"If you put it like that..." Nora Ephron thought thoughtfully, "But my friend, who is also a film director, doesn't think so. He thinks that it would be inappropriate for the two protagonists to miss each other on the street.

very good."

"Well, I think your director friend needs to watch an old Hollywood movie, 'Sullivan's Travels.'" Ronald smiled.

"Sullivan's Trip, the debut film of the Hollywood sex icon Veronica Lake in the 1940s?" Nora Ephron was quite familiar with film history. She nodded, "I'll tell Rob... Haha,

Let’s see what he says now.”

Ronald smiled. It seemed that Nora Ephron herself was in favor of a happy ending, and it was that director named Rob who directed it randomly.

"I said, are you interested in reading this script? I'll ask my agent to send it to you. I'm looking for investors now." Nora Ephron didn't want to miss the opportunity.

"You can call my agent. Don't mention the script on the phone. Just say that I asked you to make the call." Ronald took out a business card with the agent's phone number and handed it to Nora.

Efron. There are many factions in CAA, and Ronald doesn't want to leave any clues to others.

"Understood." Nora Ephron asked for another salad, mixed it in her own way and handed it to Ronald.

"Well, this is really delicious." Ronald felt that it was worthwhile to exchange for this secret recipe considering the conditions of production investment. Although this script does not sound like a blockbuster, there is a shortage of scripts now.

It’s also good to watch.



When they arrived in Los Angeles, Ronald and Cameron Crowe found a place to meet. In the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel, drinks and food were prepared in an executive suite, waiting for the two to meet privately.

"I wrote a script, can you read it?" Cameron Crowe came up and got straight to the point, taking out a newly bound script.

"Of course." Ronald took it and took a look. The copper nails binding on it had just been polished to prevent him from cutting his hands while turning the pages while reading.

I saw two words written on the cover, "Say Anything (love to the depths)", followed by an ellipsis.

"To the depths of love?" Ronald looked at this very interesting script title and opened it to read.

"Teen romance movie?" Ronald blurted out after flipping through the pages.

"Yes, I wanted to direct this movie, so I chose the subject matter I am most familiar with." Cameron Crowe's eyes were full of hope.

For such an old friend who helped silently, Ronald was not as vain as he was for Nora Ephron.

"Now that the strike is still going on, I can let Daydream do an evaluation. If it's good, we will sign a contract. I will invest less than 6 million myself. If it exceeds, I will find a big publisher to cooperate."

"Hahaha, thank you, Ronald."

Cameron Crowe felt Ronald's kindness and he was so happy. Ronald actually agreed to an investment of at least six million. For him, a screenwriter who has never directed a movie, this condition is acceptable.

That's very loose.

Ronald is actually very happy. Nowadays, major film studios are having a script crisis. Crowe's script at least has a smooth structure and a very sunny ending. The hero and heroine come together regardless of all obstacles. Binola Ive

The Long one is much stronger.

"Great, when do you think the strike will end and we can start running this project?" Cameron Crowe said after laughing.

"Why……"
